PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nate The National Banger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Scarlatti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The National Banger's entrance music is I Get Money - 50 Cent. A fine choice. Scarlatti has chosen 'Der Meister' by Rammstein as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jimmy Scarlatti was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
